PVP FrameworkPrice - Value - Profitability
More specifically
Conceptually, a Value Map “calibrates” theFair Market Value (FMV) of Perceived Benefits.
More
• A Value Map is a visual representation of a market’s competitive products (the letters)• Horizontal axis: the combined magnitude of the “benefits bundles” a product delivers• Vertical axis: the perceived price of each product … i.e., what people think that they
are likely to pay for comparable products.
Conceptually, a Value Map “calibrates” theFair Market Value (FMV) of Perceived Benefits.
The Fair Market Value line is defined by the lowest priced products at the various “steps” along the benefits axis.
Products above the fair market value line have “value deficits”,i.e. their prices are higher than their benefit bundles are expected to command in the market, at the point in time …
The Fair Market Value line is defined by the lowest priced products at the various “steps” along the benefits axis.
Products deliver sought after benefits.
When they are priced at (or below) the FMV, they “create value” …

External Economics• Supply curves generally slope upwards – since higher prices
entice more potential suppliers into a market and motivate existing suppliers to supply more.
• Industry demand curves generally slope downward – more buyers are willing & able to buy more at lower prices …

• Company-relevant demand curves may or may not slope downward, depending on the competitive structure of the industry … strategy tries to tilt the curve downward
• At a macro level, in perfectly competitive markets, an “equilibrium price” balances supply and demand,
Q = f (P) and all firms are price-takers.
• When there are market inefficiencies , i.e. imperfectly competitive markets, some firms may be price-makers.
External Economics
From a firm’s perspective, a downward sloping demand curve is strategically beneficial since it provides latitude for “making” prices and for optimally managing capacity.

Internal EconomicsProfit Models
Leveraging market economics & profit models to capitalize on the firm’s value proposition.
• Internal economics – are a reflection of company –specific Business Model Economics (BME)
• BME reduces to 3 basic factors:
(1) Magnitude of required investment
(2) Magnitude and composition of costs,I,e, high or low, mostly fixed or mostly variable, and
(3) Magnitude and nature or the revenue stream,e.g. single or multiple “streams”

Internal EconomicsProfit Models
Leveraging market economics & profit models to capitalize on the firm’s value proposition.
• Costs (C) are often a function of quantity produced due to scale economies, learning curve effects, and overhead absorption
• … and, as reflected in demand curves, quantity (Q) is a function of price, i.e. Q = f (P)
• .... so, costs (C) are a derived function of price, too …i.e. C ~ f (P)
• … which means that profit is ultimately a function of price … since price influences demand (directly) and costs (indirectly), i.e. π = f (P)

Understand
• Potential customers need (or want) products to deliver specific benefits.
• Key is understanding the benefits, their relative importance versus one another,, and the overlap or gaps in benefits’ delivery versus competing products
• Typically done via market research: surveys, one-on-one interviews, direct observation of products in use
• Subject to bad market research and management mis-interpretation …

Understand
• Question: Is it usually desirable for a company to try to deliver all of the benefits sought by all potential customers ?
• Answer: No
It is typically not both technologically feasible (“can’t do”) and / or economically justified (“don’t want to do”) to satisfy all benefits sought by all customers

Understand Design
• Process for translating customers’ desired benefits into product specifications is called QFD, Quality Function Deployment.
(See HomaFiles.com for QFD details)
• The “design gap” between customers’ desired benefits and the benefits that get specified into a product may be unintentional (because customer requirements are misinterpreted) or intentional(because delivery of the benefits is not technically feasible or economical)

Understand Design Produce
• An “execution gap” can happen between the benefits specified into a product and the benefits delivered by the final product.
• That is, the product is not “made to spec” because (1) the specifications are not feasible to produce or (2) production is simply outside of design tolerances.

• The benefits that customers perceive that a product delivers may be different than the benefits that the product actually delivers
• …. that’s an avoidable “perceptions gap”, or “communications gap”,

• The communications “gap” can be a positive – a perceived benefits surplus-- if a customer credits a product with
more benefits than it actually delivers.
• Eventually perceptions converge on realities … provided that a product survives in the market long enough.

• Ricocheting off the fair market value line calibrates the expected market price of the benefits bundle
• The process – from benefits fulfillment through fair market pricing is the essence of “Value Creation”

Price – Profits Realization
Calibrate Decide
• Companies may set a “target price” at FMV or below FMV ... The latter is called “ceding value” … gives buyers a good deal.
• Above FMV, few or no sales should be expected … since product is a bad deal for customers

• Companies may set a “target price” at FMV or below FMV ... The latter is called “ceding value”
• Above FMV, few or no sales should be expected … since product is a bad deal for customers
• Question: why would a company ever price below FMV rather than pricing “to the market”?

Price – Profits Realization
Calibrate Decide
• Companies may set a “target price” at FMV or below FMV ... The latter is called “ceding value”
• Above FMV, few or no sales should be expected … since product is a bad deal for customers
• Question: why would a company ever price below FMV rather than pricing “to the market”?
• Answer: To build short-term market share, perhaps to establish a broad installed base that can be strategically leveraged into follow-on or ancillary sales, e.g. next generation upgrades, razors & blades
Note: long-run, competitors are likely to react, may “recalibrate” the FMV relationship, and neutralize gains
Price – Profits Realization
Calibrate Decide Execute
• Realized price is that portion of the target price that is actually “pocketed” – so, it is sometimes called the “pocket price”.
• The ratio of realized price to target price is called the transaction yield, or price yield.
More
Price – Profits Realization
Calibrate Decide Execute
• The difference between the target price and the realized price is called “leakage”, or sometimes referred to as “holes in the pricing bucket”.
• The leakage occurs mostly due to unplanned discounting (to close sales) and non-price concessions (e.g. extended dating terms)

• The ultimate objective is profits !
• Different customers have varying costs-to serve (CTS) -- some customers may require extra services, special logistics, etc.
• Final step: subtracting full cost – including the appropriate allocation of fixed costs –from realized price to determine net profit
